Kevin Garnett was listed on the box score as having zero rebounds in the Boston Celtics’ 92-79 Saturday win over the 76ers. He was not happy about it.

"You know what, I’m looking for the statistician around here. And when I find out what he looks like, we might have some problems," Garnett said. "I had a rebound in the first quarter. That’s bull----, man. No, that’s f---ing bull----. That’s all I’m going to say. I had a rebound in the first half, thank you. I think that’s an error, we’re going to fix that."

Garnett played 23 minutes and scored 19 points on 9-of-11 shooting but didn’t come down with a single rebound. Saturday was the first time that happened since Jan. 21, 1997, when Garnett was a member of the Minnesota Timberwolves and in his second season in the NBA.

Rebounding is often considered a measurement of effort, so it’s no wonder Garnett, one of the NBA’s tireless workers, has a career average of 10.6 rebounds per game, even though that number has declined in the latter stage of his career. In his best statistical season, which came in 2003-2004, Garnett complemented an average of 24.2 points per game with 13.9 rebounds.

After the game on Saturday, Garnett couldn’t believe he finished without a rebound, and then he was even more surprised to find it wasn’t the first time he had finished blank in the column.

"What was it, '98 or something? [It was] '97? Blow the dust off that," Garnett said. "Are you serious? That’s an error. I got a rebound, they are going to go back and fix that."
